Article 5 of the Convention. Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Government indicates that, further to the agreement reached by the members of the Standing Committee for the Coordination of Social Affairs (CPCS) to devote at least one annual meeting to matters related to international labour standards, the CPCS undertook consultations in November 2011 and in May 2013 on the matters referred to in Article 5(1) of the Convention. The Committee notes that the matters discussed included the reply to the questionnaire for the General Survey concerning social security instruments (2011), the reports submitted in 2011 and 2012 by the Macao Special Administrative Region under article 22 of the ILO Constitution, and on the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC, 2006). The Government reports that the CPCS has also convened meetings in order to conduct in-depth research and discussions on labour policies and draft legislation. The Committee invites the Government to continue to provide up-to-date information on the consultations held on each of the matters concerning international labour standards listed in Article 5(1) of the Convention.
